MONEY rs a Thing of Law.

The Journal of United Labor, pub.
lished by the Order of the Knights of
Labor. put the following propositions,
which cover the question of money
about as well as iJ eau be done:
There are four propositions that
must stand in the face of all contro-
versy.
J. That all money, of whatever COM
posed, gold, silver, iron or paper, is
made and uumade by law.
2. That money, OF whatever make,
is always national, never international
except by agreement of nations
3. That the money of one nation is
never the money of another natiun,
although composed of the same ma
terial.
"a That nations do not pay debts to
each other in money. but in commod
tiles. If coin be used in pay yment, It
is received not as money but az metal.
1t is accepted by weight and not by
count.
The truth of these propositions set
ties the question of what constitutes
money. The history of the world
upon money proves the truth of these
four statements Il Industrial Appeal.
Yes, money is thing created by
law. The substance from which money
ss made may be a commodity, but
money is not commodity, though a
large number of financial writers have
made the mistake of calling it so.
There is no international money.
Gold and silver. as bullion, is COM
i .e, fnr oil
from nation TO nation at a given rate.
Its price varies, but not so with money
Money has fixed value, and although
the metal out of which a coin is made
may change in value, the coin itself,
in the nation where it is made, does
not change in value. The Aba grains
silver dollar is dollar to all intents
and purposes in the u. s., as much as
the gold dollar of 25 $40 grains. The
value of the bullion in one or the other
may change, but the value of the coin
is fixed by statute law, and does not
change. There is therefore no such
thing in existence as an soc legal ten.
der dollar. It cannot exist. The sill
yer dollar of the U. s. is full lega
tender dollar, and will purchase a.
much of any commodity in the U. S
as any gold dollar. But the laws o
one nation cannot make coin pass il
another nation for more than its bul
lion value, SO there is no internationa
money. Debts are paid between ma
tions in commodities, wheat, corn
manufactured goods or gold aud silve
bullion.-[The Silver Dollar.

a, Un,awfuI Arr ngement.

Judge Jennison, of Detroit, has just
randered a decision which will, II car
ried out, compel labor organizations to
change their tactics. Some ship car
peaters were brought to Detroit from
Maine, to take the places of workmen
with whom their employers had had
a disagreement, though there had been
M strike. Both the new and the old
man were Knights of Labor, and a
local assembly of that society made an
agreement with the new men to pay
their expenses back home if they
uould leave its Jurisdiction. The
money was paid over but the Maine
men. instead of returning to their own
state. went to work at place within
the jurisdiction of the assembly that
had paid them to leave. The latter
than moved to recover the amount
Maid to each man, S35, action being
hrouoht 10 determine the validity of
the agreement made by the Maine
xvorkmen to leave the country. The
Court held, and the jury so decided,
that the agreement was unlawful.
Judge Jeunison said that the agree
ment was nothing more nor LEGS than
q combination, aimed to lnJure the
company which had hired the Maine
mem. and that if such inteptious were
npheld, it would strike fatal blow at
the development of every industry.

Washington Letter.

WASHINGTON, D. g., April 20. 1887.
When Washington is rather dull,
Congress absent, and no really new
news accessible, your correspondent is
excusable for writing about things
that are talked about whether or not
they are new or important. May will
be one of the gayest and merriest of
months in Washington. but April has
not been so at all. Society is cOmpar-
lively quiet except when it occasional.
ly INDUCES in paper hunt, its latest
fad," which is $50 English, you
know" The White House is quiet,
Mrs. Cleveland hasn't been doing or
saying anything that was very re.
markable of late. and the gossip about
President Cleyeland's second term has
subsidized for the present.
An effort was made recently to in
duce the President to recommend to
Congress the purchase of some paint
ipgs by foreign artist, which have
been hanging in the Executive Man
sion for several years. Mr.. Cleveland
is an official who proposes to attend
strictly only to his own legitimate bus.
mess and duties, and he was a trifis
indignant at this suggestion. He did
not enter into the question of the de-
STABILITY of the pictures from an ar
tistic standpoint, but declined posi-
lively to say anything to Congress on
the ground that it was not an affair
calling for the action of the President.
Congressman O'Neil, of Missouri,
resently said that he wished most
heartily some law could be passed by
which Congressional influence in Sc.

sally done away with. Said he, "the
bane of a Congressman's existence is
the ceaseless application for Office from
every Tom, Dick and John who voted
for him. He said some of them can
be reasoned with and made to under.
stand that thousand men can't be
appointed to ten offices, but it takes
valuable time and attention to con.
vince them. Others, usually those
who have the least right to expect
anything, can't appreciate reasoning,
and have to be refused fatty then they
never forgive you, and only wait for
an opportunity to give you a stab in
the dark. He thought it was quite
enough to disgust man with Con

There are positions under the Gov
ernment requiring special training to
which the principle of rotation would
not apply, because of the difficulty OF
filling vacancies with men of the re

reason would the government have fol

The very worst thing the govern.

Senator Sh and the Bandits.
Senator Sherman had his attention
drawn to the dispatch printed in the
New York Herald indicating that dur.
ing the Senator's recent trip to Cuba
he very narrowly escaped kidnapping.
The Senator had already read the
story in the Herald, and laughed
heartily when the subject was men
toned. He said it had afforded him
a great deal of merriment. Why,
the idea," said he, "that I was play
ing the Traveller IN Fra Diavolo' and
didn't know it! But L haven't the
slightest hesitation in saying that the
story is entirely product of the i'm
agination. 1 don't believe that Mata
gas or any other bandit ever heard of
me or my party, and L don't believe
they would have paid any attention to
me if they had. The only circum-
stance in the story which comedies
with the fact is that we drove out five
or six miles one beautiful sunny after
noon to some sugar and pineapple
plantations. On that occasion we had
none of the military escort mentioned
and apparently needed none. 1t is q
